Spiritually sensitive and clinically informed therapy for children, adolescents, and families

It is important to develop both a trusting and a comfortable relationship between you and your therapist as this is the essential predictor for success in the therapeutic process. I have practiced individual and family therapy for over seventeen years, giving me the chance to see how motivation and behavior changes can help alleviate stressful issues and problems. Family therapy can be very helpful with children and teens' risk factors through a strength-based relational model and with proven complimentary behavior change interventions. If I am doing my job well then you have a better chance of experiencing great benefits, which is why having regular feedback about the process can make a difference. I have had the honor of working with many family members over the years and hope that you'll call for a free thirty minute consultation.

Let's explore those parts of you that want to be seen, held, and transformed. While my deep connection to the wild places in nature and contemplative practices inform my work, I incorporate skills from a variety of trainings I have successfully completed over the years. I offer a therapeutic environment of respectful challenge, acceptance, curiosity, and joy. Individuals I have worked with have experienced long-lasting changes, deep transformation, and shifts when feeling stuck and hopeless. I would like to support you in creating a deeply satisfying and joyful life. My work is based in contemplative practice, Gestalt and Hakomi therapy, and our deep and healing connection to others. My deepest passion lies in helping you connect with your core, your true self; reflected by authentic relationships with others, and expressed through your love for life. I have worked with individuals from all walks of life; people struggling with self-worth, states of mental or brain imbalances (such as depression, bi-polar, or anxiety), or PTSD. Areas of special interest are EPILEPSY, PSYCHOLOGICAL NON-EPILEPTIC SEIZURES, and SOMATOFORM DISORDERS. http://www.tearsandlaughter.com/ http://www.rockymountainepilepsy.com/

Everybody needs help once in a while and you are no exception. A crisis does not have to be a bad thing. For the past 20 years I have helped people use their crises to propel themselves into a better life. Become the person you always wanted to be. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor as well as a Licensed Spiritual Health Coach.
